>> nbc news sources. he was seen around the scene. somebody reported him. police most certainly questioned a lot of people. >> right. >> remember, this is the end of the marathon. so runners and so on have their personal effects that are there. so there were certainly a lot of packages around there. >> it's just weird. it's just weird. it sounds like it could be profiling. they see a saudi guy. was he doing anything suspicious? you know what i'm saying? it's weird that you would focus a person when there's thousands of people around. it's bizarre. hopefully it's not just an example of profiling. >> well, yeah, absolutely. i don't want to get into the speculation. we know somebody saw this person acting suspiciously. and there were also reports that there is, as i think becky mentioned earlier, potentially some video of somebody. may not be this person. presumably we will find this as we go along. somebody was kind of walking around acting suspiciously. maybe they saw somebody depositing these packages somebody. but a whole lot of analysis. the thing that is
